Rare Jim_Iain Posted February 14, 2019 #1 Share Posted February 14, 2019 (edited) Let’s see what we can dig up on Summit Revolution. I thought she was heading to Dry Dock today but just filed plans show she is heading to Port Everglades arriving on 16th Unless this is incorrect.

vermonter16 Posted February 14, 2019 #2 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Huh....I am out of the loop. Is she supposed to be in dry dock already? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Jim_Iain Posted February 14, 2019 Author #3 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Just did a search of Port Everglades Arrivals and Departures and it is showing she will be arriving on the 16 at 20:30 and departing for Freeport, Grand Bahamas on the 17th at 04:00. Wonder if it was more cost effective to drop off crew that will not stay with the ship for Dry Dock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vermonter16 Posted February 14, 2019 #4 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Apparently she will be in dry dock in March in the Bahamas. That's what I read on another thread. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her final cruise ended today in San Juan -- and she was going to dry dock. Didn't know about her little side trip. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philpcruiser Posted February 14, 2019 #6 Share Posted February 14, 2019 (edited) Maybe she needed to pick up supplies or offload something in the US before the drydock? Edited February 14, 2019 by philpcruiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare 1025cruise Posted February 15, 2019 #9 Share Posted February 15, 2019 My guess it was more cost effective to have her sail back to Florida to take on the dry dock supplies than it was to ship to San Juan or Freeport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be. Tight turnaround as she is only in port for about 8 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevea36 Posted February 15, 2019 #11 Share Posted February 15, 2019 This is a planned stop to pick up supplies for the upgrades as many of you have guessed. Apparently there is already work going on so she will also drop off discarded gear. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if the Bahamas is like Bermuda. Shipping to Bermuda incurs a heart stopping tax. In my boating days we used to get around it by registering with Customs as a “yacht in transit”. Then we had a specific date we had to leave or ....... 33% of the cost of goods was collected in tax. if something like this happens in the Bahamas, that’s a very good reason to fill the Summit with as much material as possible.

Rare Jim_Iain Posted February 15, 2019 Author #15 Share Posted February 15, 2019 (edited) Maybe we can observe more from the port cam once in Port everglades. Summit has departed San Juan and is on the way to Port Everglades. Edited February 15, 2019 by Jim_Iain 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking she was in dry dock today also until I saw her filed plans yesterday. Fun to watch. Hope some of the crew and workers post pictures once in Dry Dock. It is always exciting to watch her being restored to her glory. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many of the pictures were being posted by Captain Alex and Staff Captain Wendy. There were also a number of them posted by the Cruise Director and Shore Excursion Manager. Hopefully we will get some during Summit's dry dock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
